Abstract

Consider two cubical sets X and Y. In Chapter 2 we have studied the associated homology groups H*(X) and H*(Y). Now assume that we are given a continuous map f: X → Y. It is natural to ask if f induces a group homomorphism f*: H*(X) → H*(Y). If so, do we get useful information out of it? The answer is yes and we will spend the next three chapters explaining how to define and compute f*. It is worth noting, even at this very preliminary stage, that since H*(X) and H*(Y) are abelian groups, f* is essentially a linear map and therefore, from the algebraic point of view, easy to use.KeywordsArithmetic OperationInterval ArithmeticCombinatorial ObjectElementary CubeTight ApproximationThese keywords were added by machine and not by the authors.
